- Weighting

- Question types
- 30 multiple-choice second foreign language / Hanja questions
- Hanja / Classical Chinese I Level I is won through fast recognition. Build daily review decks for greetings, school life, travel, numbers, time, family, food, and common verbs.
- For Hanja shape, sound, meaning, radicals, stroke clues, and character compounds, practice reading aloud and matching sound to form until decoding no longer consumes question time.
- For classical word order, particles, sentence patterns, negation, comparison, causative/passive clues, and translation conventions, drill short sentence transformations and choose answers by agreement, word order, tense, particles, or markers.
Common mistakes
Hanja shape, sound, meaning, radicals, stroke clues, and character compounds
Misreading a familiar-looking character, letter, or pronunciation mark under time pressure.
How to avoid: Drill minimal pairs and write the sound or meaning beside confusing forms during review.
classical word order, particles, sentence patterns, negation, comparison, causative/passive clues, and translation conventions
Choosing a natural-sounding option that violates the Level I grammar pattern.
How to avoid: Check agreement, word order, tense, particles, and endings before using intuition.
short classical passages, idioms, proverbs, moral sayings, historical/cultural excerpts, and practical Hanja vocabulary
Translating every word and running out of time on longer notices or dialogues.
How to avoid: Find speaker, purpose, time, place, and requested action first.
